One of the really nifty things going on in this thread besides the added paint, is trying to identify all of the parts your using, your stuff is really getting quite diverse! Also, the way that your handling things, some of the Star Wars inspired figures are more clean, then your resistance veteran looks very gritty (cool helmet btw)... I'm gonna go with the female mercs as my faves this round, but they are all really great bro! More fuel for the fire!
Thanks for always stopping by? |

Thank you for the compliment man! I?m quite humbled and appreciative. Truly the more I work with paint the more I value and admire the work you and other customizers put into your figures.
Many thanks for the multiple compliments my bro. Diversity is what I strive for with these posts as that?s exactly what keeps me going creatively so I may be all over the place yet I try to keep it cohesive. I do enjoy the challenge of putting different parts to together or Frankensteining like some call it haha so you?ll be seeing more of that here. Definitely more Jedi and Sith Lords coming too! Thanks for always stopping by? Building/kitbashing figures is just 1 lane of many my friend. You will find the more you paint , the more you teach yourself . Painting, brushes, styles it can all differentiate. That?s one thing that will make you unique since you are just dabbling in it a bit. You?ll become unorthodox which makes you different. Different is awesome. You can always always tell orthodox painters by their similarities. If you ever have questions my line is always open for you Paokole. Keep up the great work!

Don?t know how I missed this batch! The female mercenaries are badass! Love that they have similar beats but you made them so different with their gear & coloring. Looks like who they send in when a large army just wouldn?t be precise enough. Really cool metallic blue paint job.
Those siths are too cool! Really inventive looks and the cloth work is perfect. The Nautolan has such a badass uniform, those greens and grays are incredible. Then the build and paint job on that resistance fighter.....perfection! Total real world look, at a quick glance, might have missed that it was plastic. Haha. Great job with all of these unique builds and characters!

As much as I would like to claim this work as mine, I cannot. Full credit goes to a buddy of mine with an endless level of creativity and innovation. Huge fan of his work.
This is a Navy SEAL Winter Warfare Custom. The detail he managed to squeeze into a 4" figure is extraordinary. Winter Warfare SEAL |

Forget your friends customs for a second.
I don’t know anyone outside of this site who actually loves gi Joes , and who also customizes them in real life! That’s unreal bro! Why isnt he on this site and where does he get his inspiration from?

Built by you are not, that's an amazing custom & must look so cool (pun intended) in your collection! Love the visor, paint, & cloth parts... reminds me of the mighty Slice's work...is it Slice? ;-)

I could have sworn I commented on Ninja Commando Kai, but looking back through the thread it appears I didn't. Great design on him. Really like all of the parts choices you went with. Looks like a factory figure not even a custom.

Your friend absolutely crushed it on that SEAL custom! Always funny to have that friend who makes killer customs but then they?re not on Hisstank so a lot of like minded fans don?t get to see them. My buddy does that with Classified, same with my brother using MTF stuff. Definitely let him know how well that custom was received! Absolutely love the weathering and the gear layout and fabric bits he used to bring it to life are top notch! Just a fantastic custom, hope we see more from them!
